MUMBAI: They say ‘money is not everything but we need money for everything’! Of course, money cannot buy happiness, but it definitely takes care of the basic necessities, and if you are rich, your money will let you live life king size. Hardik Pandya is one such celebrity who is known for his fancy lifestyle. However, things were not like this always.
Well, a conversation revolving around “struggle and success” stories is incomplete without the mention of the Pandya brothers. Krunal and Hardik Pandya are famous cricketers and are known for their lavish lifestyles.
However, they were not born with a silver spoon! It is their passion for cricket and hard work that enabled them to afford such kind of a lifestyle. From leading a modest lifestyle to experiencing the luxuries of life, the cricketers’ lives took a turn for the better, thanks to their performance on the field.
So, how did Hardik and Krunal dealt with the sudden change in financial status? In an old interview with Indian Express, Hardik Pandya had shared, “As a family we never sat down and had a proper discussion about it. We just knew that things are going to change. Krunal and I are very confident people. I was more ambitious than him. I always dreamt big. I always wanted cars, fancy things and the only way I could get that was through my sport. It was also a passion, so it helped. Back then, my coping mechanism was being at the ground all the time. I did that for four years between 16 and 20. I used to get so tired that I had no energy to think about the financial problems really. There were times when Krunal and I would ask questions to the Almighty, ‘Why us? Why are only we having problems for 2-3 years? What have we done?’ But that would last for a minute or two. Then like the jugaadu guys that we were, we sorted things out. Many times I wouldn’t go out with friends and all because I didn’t want to be embarrassed about saying I don’t have money, you pay for me.”
